Canada Army Run 2026

The Canada Army Run is an annual race that champions the charitable causes Support our Troops and Soldier On, which help to care for the Canadian Armed Forces community, their Families and the ill and injured. The Canada Army Run takes place every September in Ottawa and also has a virtual race option to allow for more participation and support for the cause. This highly anticipated event gathers participants from across Canada and the world. The tagline “No ordinary race” is symbolic of the race elements that are “military” from the start to the finish line, such as the cannon starter’s pistol, Remembrance Row and the dog tag medals placed by soldiers at the finish line.

The Atlas Institute for Veterans and Families is honoured to return as a proud partner of the 2026 Army Run. We are excited to support an event that is so meaningful to Veterans, serving members, and their Families and look forward to connecting with the community at this years Canada Army Run. Participants will find Atlas in the Cartier Square Drill Hall on September 18 and 19, where they will be able to take home mental health resources created based on input from the Veteran and Family community and learn more about how Atlas works with the community.
